Music Right Next Door Legal Fund

I'm going to skip a few chapters here and note that our Federal Civil Rights complaint against O'Hara Township is currently on appeal to the Third Circuit Court of Appeals. As you might imagine, we've spent quite a bit on lawyers and are anticipating that this will continue for some time. So now we're asking for help from you. We've established the "Music Right Next Door Legal Fund" to collect contributions from the general public to support the ongoing litigation. The web site contains detailed information about the fund including the agreement that details how the funds will be administered. We've registered the name of the fund as a fictitious name, hired an independent accountant to collect and administer the funds, and a voluntary filing with the Pennsylvania Bureau of Charitable Organizations is pending. This is serious business, and we want to make sure that everyone who contributes knows exactly how their contributions are going to be used.

We would appreciate it if everyone who cares about ensuring that local zoning laws respect our Constitutional rights at least enough to permit a citizen to host a party with live music in his/her home would contribute. Thanks again for your support up to this point, and in advance for your future support.
